=== Formatting Guide ===

This wiki follows formatting guidelines adapted from the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style Wikipedia Manual of Style].

The aim is to provide a guide that keeps contributions clear, consistent, and simple to build upon.

==== Text Formatting ====
* Use '''Lastname, Firstname''' for authors.
* Italicize titles of books, journals, or long works using two single quotes:
<code>''Placing Outer Space''</code> → *Placing Outer Space*
* Use en dashes (–) for page ranges:
Example: 101–115
* Use square brackets for external links:
<code>[https://example.com]</code>

==== Categories ====
* Add category tags at the bottom of the page to group references by theme.

Format: <code><nowiki>[[Category:ThemeName]]</nowiki></code>

* Use existing category names where possible. You may suggest new ones on the Talk page.

==== Page Titles ====
Use structured naming for reference pages so they can be searched and reused easily.

Format:
<code>Bibliography/References/Lastname_Year_Title</code>

Example:
<code>Bibliography/References/Messeri_2016_PlacingOuterSpace</code>

==== BibTeX (for unique reference entries only) ====
To support exporting citations, you can include a BibTeX block in a <pre> tag:

<pre>
@book{Messeri2016,
author = {Lisa Messeri},
title = {Placing Outer Space},
year = {2016},
publisher = {Duke University Press}
}
</pre>
